Mas Borracho is the fourth album by Infectious Grooves, released in 2000.[4][5] The title, as written on the album, is "but drunk" in Spanish. However, it is most likely a misspell of "más borracho", meaning "more drunk" or "drunker".
Critical reception
The Sunday Herald Sun called the band "as technically perfect as any outfit," writing that the album contains "such perfect slow-funk tracks as 'Lock It In The Pocket' and 'Borracho'."[6] Rock Hard wrote that "the music is as always: well played, pleasantly live-like and powerfully produced. But that doesn't hide the fact that Mike [Muir] and the like present us nothing more than boring funk-metal-rock with typically thin vocals."[3]
